Ruben Loftus-Cheek is pretty highly regarded at Chelsea both by the fans and the manager Antonio Conte. The English under-21 international has found it hard to break into Antonio Conte’s first-team this season but he is touted as a future superstar at Stamford Bridge.
He joined the academy of Chelsea at the age of 8 and after his 12-year association with the West London club, he still is some way off the first-team. A loan experience could prove to be crucial for him to get in Conte’s plans in the future.
Chelsea apparently wants the 20-year-old to gain valuable first-team experience on loan and are looking for offers. Here are three potential destinations of the 20-year-old that we at T4O believes Conte should consider.
Newcastle United
Rafael Benitez has previously worked with the youngster at Chelsea during his short stint at Stamford Bridge and reportedly wants him at St. James’ Park to bolster Newcastle’s promotion chances.
The Magpies have dropped down to the second place with a defeat against Sheffield Wednesday but still have a brilliant chance of winning the Championship title and get their place back in the top tier.
Rafa Benitez is a brilliant manager to work with and get experience from which makes Newcastle an ideal loan destination for the promising young midfielder.
